The first hull everyone owns, Hunter is known as one of the two universal hulls, serving as a solid medium between heavy and light hulls. While its brother Viking is more comparable to the likes of Dictator, Hunter has a stronger affinity for lighter hull attributes, such as drifting when Speed Boost is active and being relatively fluid in motion. However, Hunter gets the best of both worlds with a noticeably higher armor rating than the light hulls while still being able to leave every medium hull in the dust by a fair margin. The turret is centered on this hull, and many draw similarities between Hunter and Hornet due to their similar control styles. If you're looking for medium hull that can play like a light hull, then why not Hunter?

Description in Garage

An excellent choice for any tanker. It has decent speed for a medium tank and enough armor to handle itself well in battles at any range. Goes well with almost any gun and is a real hunter!

Table of characteristics

Protection (hp) — tank's health. Damage dealt by a turret is subtracted from a tank's protection. Once the protection gets to zero, the tank explodes.

Weight — affects tank's stability, i.e. impact force of hits, recoil of its own turret, and partly, ability to move other tanks (this parameter does not affect tank's speed).

Top speed (m/sec) — maximum speed the tank can get to on a straight.

Acceleration (m/sec²) — affects the time it takes a tank to get to its maximum speed and ability to push other tanks.

Reverse acceleration (m/sec²) — anti-inertial acceleration that comes into force when a tank is moving in one direction and a player presses the button of moving to other direction. It works until speed gets to zero. After that, usual acceleration starts working.

Lateral acceleration (m/sec²) — responsible for damping of lateral speed. The less this parameter is, the easier tank can drift. The higher it is, the more difficult it is for a tank to move sideways.

Turning speed (deg/sec) — the maximum speed at which the tank can turn.

Turning acceleration (deg/sec²) — affects the time it takes a tank to get to its maximum turning speed.
